Patagonia Vacation - Chile

The magnificent region of Patagonia covers the southernmost portion of South America. Located in Argentina and Chile, its natural geographic regions are subdivided into distinct areas, each of which are worthy of exploration. The high Andes, moist forests and Steppes, windblown expanses of rolling land, are just a few of the diverse environments that a visit to the region can offer.

Upon arrival at Punta Arenas in Patagonia we will transfer you to your comfortable hotel. After you have checked in you will have a tour of the nearby penguin colony. You will spend the night in a hotel in Punta Arenas, the Indigo Hotel for example would be a good choice.

After the tour, we will make our way to the Milodon Cave, where a giant sloth is believed to have lived 12,000 years ago. Excellent views of the Paine Massif, Almirante Nieto and Torres del Paine make this a beautifully scenic drive and depending on the hosteria we stay in, we may pass the magnificent Laguna Amarga and Lake Pehoe.
